Missing You

By Elmina


You're so cold; I guess you
Didn't miss me
My body aches for your touch
Can you not see?
You hold me close, but
The heat in your eyes
Is it just a mask
Despair in disguise?

I used to know you
I think I still do...
Sounds so simple, but was that
What you wanted, too?
Have we both changed
Forgotten what we shared
Was I too blind to see it
The only one who cared?

Your touch burns my skin
Sets my body on fire
Is that your only purpose
All that you desire?
A reminder of the fact that
I belong to you
Why do you even bother
When you know it's true.

Lying in bed, thinking about it
My only fear...
When I wake up in the morning
You are not here
I know you can't stay, but
What makes it so wrong?
To want to stay forever
Where we both belong.
